About The Event
We face a profound polycrisis - social polarization, ecological breakdown, growing inequality, and a meaning crisis reinforcing each other interdependently - demanding an integrated vision of transformation in education systems: K-12, higher education and adult development. Pioneers across academia, activism and organizing, politics, technology, and religion recognize that solutions require not just systemic change but also cultivating inner change through a Second Renaissance of wisdom-based societal transformation. This event unites educational thought leaders and change-makers to spark cross-disciplinary dialogue and collaboration to support the paradigm shift towards a better, wiser world.
And changing education towards flourishing starts with our own development. How will you develop to accelerate the flourishing agenda in education?
